Image Essay #5


Alright, here is one more work by Armin Mersmann and since I think I’m overusing this artist a little, this will be the last work of his I used for these image essays. Anyway, I really like this piece because of how simple the subject matter is. It’s just a small patch of ground with grass, dirt, pebbles, etc. and he turned it into a very interesting piece of art. I like it also because it looks very abstract but it’s almost like a natural abstractness. Also this is another great example of the great detail and textures he can recreate with just a pencil and paper and using different shading and line types. Mainly the thing I like most about this picture is the fact that it really makes the viewer rethink how they see the world. Personally, pieces like this cause me too look way more closely at everything around me.
